So, after a month, I realized I haven’t been getting enough response to have classes, so I decided to postpone classes for a few months. I am thinking I will try again in the spring. But it would be helpful to see what kind of interest there is in attending these classes. So, if you ARE interested, let me know, and I will be sure to contact you with details. 

I will most likely be doing these classes online, and people can join in the class online, or purchase the replay after the fact. 

Just so you know, we are following the Study Program which is outlined on the website. 

We will be doing classes in sections…. so, for example, the first section is BASIC information, and that will take 5 weeks. After that, each topic will be covered in classes. I expect the classes to last 60-90 minutes each week.

The idea is that you can pay $20 per class, or you can get a section for $75 each, or the whole class portion of the initiate’s program for $275. You get to choose which level you would like.*

*Please note that these prices may change, but registering any time before we start will ensure these prices for are locked in for you when the time comes. 

Here are the details for the Initiate’s program:

The December Full Moon is on December 26, 2023 at 5:33 pm MST.

This is known as the Cold Moon due to colder weather and the desire to hunker down in the warmth of your home with family and friends. It also related to the longest night of Solstice.

This full moon has the Moon in Cancer and the Sun in Capricorn. Cancer tends to be emotional and sensitive so do watch your feelings. It’s a good time to compassionate to others as well as yourself. Capricorn, on the other hand, is responsible and productive, so this will help you to get things done often for the benefit of others.

Watch the video to learn more.

Make a note that our Winter Solstice ceremony was on December 16^th on Facebook Live and the video is still available to watch both on Facebook and YouTube. As for classes, we haven’t had much interest, so we are pausing it for now, and maybe will resume with something in the Spring.

Blessings of this Full Moon to you!

The New Moon is in Sagittarius on December 12, 2023 and is exact at 4:32 pm MST.

The New Moon is traditionally a time of new beginnings so this is a great time to start a new chapter and see things from different perspectives as you set your intentions for the month to come. This New Moon is about optimism, expansive viewpoints, and maybe even some travel as you enthusiastically explore new ideas.

This New Moon has a strong aspect to Jupiter, the ruler of Sagittarius, and it is currently in Taurus which may help you dream big and yet ground some of those new ideas. Mars is also conjunct the moon which may make you a bit impulsive, so that groundedness may help you quite a bit.

Watch the video to learn more.

Also, as a reminder, our weekly Druid classes have resumed and we meet on Tuesday nights from 6:00-7:30 pm at Crystal Magic Psychic Center. These classes are also available online. If you are interested in attending, please leave a message here on the website, or a Facebook message for Druids of the Light.

Finally, a reminder that our Winter Solstice Celebration is online on Facebook Live on December 16th at 4:00 pm. Replays will be available.
